Sonic the Hedgehog lands on the iPod
I am sure I am not the only one who spent hours playing Sonic the Hedgehog many years ago on their Sega Mega Drive (I am not that old honest!).
Well you can now get this classic game on your Apple iPod, it is available to download from iTunes for $4.99 (about £2.50).
You can play Sonic on your iPod whilst listening to your favourite tunes, and it is controlled via the scroll wheel.
It only works with the 3G iPod Nano, all 5G iPods and the iPod Classic, it doesn’t work on the iPod Touch or the iPhone.
I would love to see Sonic, and some other decent games on the iPhone, come on Apple sort it out!.

What is interesting is that the module will be open source when it goes on sale, which means that anyone can develop a GPS application to run with it.
